I'm kind of sad I didn't like it more. Youtube and IG makes it look like so much funHate to hear your setup did not work out for you especially with as much effort as you have put into it. Sounds like your on the right track to solve your situation.
My wife and I loved camping but as we got older we hated breaking camp. We started base camping by setting up the tent for about a week in an area we wanted to explore and made day trips. That worked pretty well but I bought us a teardrop camper that allowed us to move daily if we wanted to with little effort. Although we typically still stayed in one spot for at least a few days. It also solved the issue we had with to much stuff in the vehicle. It's not overlanding per say but you gets almost the same results. You just miss out on staying overnight in those really rough remote spots. I've been down a few trails I would not want to pull the teardrop.
I'm not going to abandon the idea just yet. I'll adjust my gear and alter my approach and see how that goes. It's a learning process to see what works and what doesn't. I've got a short trip to Windrock in October and Moab sometime next year. We'll see how it goes.
I gave the trailer thing some thought and maybe I'll revisit that later on, but I want to be on terrain where trailers aren't really ideal.
